Frequently asked questions

Which DNS server does this use?
Queries go to dns.google (Google Public DNS, 8.8.8.8). Results may differ from your ISP’s DNS due to caching and propagation.
Why are my records not showing?
DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate. NXDOMAIN means the domain does not exist in Google’s DNS cache yet.
Is my domain sent to a server?
Yes — the domain is sent to dns.google. No data is stored by ToolDock.
